Making waves at Benfica, Amar Dedic grabs headlines in Bosnia | OneFootball

Amar Dedic recently received an award for his humanitarian aid efforts that the defender has been carrying out in his home country. Absent from Benfica training sessions as he is currently on duty with the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team, the player who has filled Alexander Bah’s spot was highlighted in the local media.

As reported by the newspaper Record, the right-back, who arrived at Estádio da Luz this season, is currently serving his national team, which allowed him to receive the award marking International Humanitarian Aid Day.

Amar Dedic has been the starting defender for Benfica since the official start of the season, not only due to his quality on the pitch but also because his direct ‘rival’, Alexander Bah, remains unavailable due to a serious injury.

However, soon the Bosnian will face competition from the Danish player, who has not played since February. Yesterday, Benfica released a video featuring number 6 in conversation with Manu Silva. The two players, who are very close to returning to José Mourinho’s options, recalled the difficult moments they went through.

Signed from Salzburg, the defender is one of the reinforcements for 2024/25. In the current sports season, Amar Dedic – currently valued at 13 million euros – has so far played a total of 14 official matches. In the 1,204 minutes he has been on the pitch, the number 17 has recorded one goal and one assist.
